Parks and Assistant Public Works Director Riverblood commented that they also need to know how willing the seller is for the remaining easement. He stated that they do have good unit prices with the update and there will be some development fees from the outlot which will assist. Chairperson Musgrove asked if there could be an update on progress during the second quarter. Parks and Assistant Public Works Director Riverblood confirmed that could be done. City Engineer/Public Works Director Westby commented that he can also add the project to his project updates list and provide updates at each meeting with a more comprehensive update during the second quarter.

Absent: Councilmember Olson. 5.03: Consider Recommending City Council Approval of Adding Streets within Riversbend 3"d, 41h, and Plaza Subdivisions to MSA Xkimo Street Reconstruction, Improvement Project #24-05 Assistant City Engineer Feriancek reviewed the staff report and recommendation to recommend City Council approval of adding streets within Riversbend 3rd, Riversbend 41h and Riversbend Plaza subdivisions to MSA Xkimo Street Reconstruction, Improvement Project #24-05. Chairperson Musgrove commented that adding these streets will also be helpful for the businesses in this area. She appreciated the concerns of the residents with the street conditions and agreed that these roads should be included as it does not seem to add a large cost in the scope of the overall project. Assistant City Engineer Feriancek confirmed that staff believes that the funds are available to do these streets earlier than planned. He noted that the majority of the funding must be spent by 2025 because of the bonding and therefore it makes sense to frontload more projects, if possible. Councilmember Howell commented that this is a great addition, and she is happy for the residents in this area. Motion by Councilmember Howell, seconded by Councilmember Musgrove, to recommend City Council approval of adding streets within Riversbend 3rd, Riversbend 4th and Riversbend Plaza subdivisions to MSA Xkimo Street Reconstruction, Improvement Project #24-05.
